The official statistios of Charman commerce show that the exports of cotton, lines, and woollen goods and elithes from the German Eapies have considerably dizainiaked this your. The Gecman iron industry has been constantly UK retrograding sines 188, and he quantity of malls and wins exported in the first half of 1869 was about our third loss than that exported in the corresponding balf of 1858, whereas the English export of the same goods has increased about one-third in the same period. The German export of other frou, oop. per. and lead goods has alen considerably dài Croused.

It is gratifying to note, says Engineering, the progress which the Transanding Railway in making. The Andes are being crossed of the Uspoilsis or Cumbre Pass, where there will be fandel 3.1 miles in longth, at an elevation of 10.450F, above sea level. The pass itself is near ly 9,000ft. higher, or at 13015ft. And is sinated Hongkong & C. Gas 44 miles sontfi of Aconcagua and 3.84 miles north | H. Dairy Farm. of Taggato. in der. 8. latitude. It will Electric Light.... thus be even that the summit level of the Tran.FL. L Tramwaya. sandine Bailway is far above any baropean fizes, which at the Rigi reach to P53ft and at H&K. Wharf & G
the St. Gottard 3,7-8ft. The total distance from Buenos Ayres to Valparaiso is about

The gango'is not uniform: From Buenos Ayres to Mendoza it is of 5ft 6in., 426 miles being worked by the Buenos Ayres and Pacife Railway Company, and 213 mes by the Great Western Hallway Company. From Valparaiso to Santa Rosa the gango is it Blin. The remni ing link from Mexãoss to Santa Ross if now being built on mistre gange by the Enerink Avres and Valparaiso Traesandias Railway Company. The Arst 56 miles are nearly completed, the rüils being laid for 10 miles. An alteration of onte has been made in the remaining part, and the raling grade of about 1 in 25 has been abandoned. This change has been diotated by the adoption of the Abt system of combined adhesion and rack rail traction. The grades are now to be 1 in 40 in the adherica sections ad 1in 19 upon the rank sections." The pale, f will consist of thren enek bira ao at the Hari Bailway, and the order for if has already been placed with Messes.

One of the Englishwomen to whom was given the faculty of saying good things in a very high degree was Harriet, Lady Ashburton, whose friendship with Carlyle, and the distress caused theraby to Mra Carlyle, are familiar to all read era of "Av. Fronda's famous and singularly in discreet biography. This lady ya cartainly blessed if it be a bassing with a bitter wit, that made her almost as much terror to her friends as to her foes, and some of her sayings are wall worth recalling to mind "A bora onnot be a good man,” she need to mys" for the betr ter a mat is, the grester bore he will be and the more hateful he will make goodness." When samobody spoke in praise of liars, that they almost invariably spoke good-naturedly of other, her castle rejoinder was: “Why, it you don't speak a word of truth, it is not difionlty to speak well of your neighbours," j
